“Worked good with my schedule being midnights. Made sure she went potty and checked her food before she left for the night. Took pictures of the walk. Very easy to coordinate with Carolina”


About: Animals run my world to say the least. Starting young and bringing everything home as a child. Snakes, turtles, ferrets, stay dogs. Everything became part of the family. As I got older the passion grew even further. Expanding to wolves, tigers, lions and more. Now also having a pack of 4 pups at home and a very spoiled kitty. Along with a few reptiles. Currently working part time having plenty of time to help take care of yours companions. I have a flexible schedule and I’m happy to work around you and your pets needs. Crating available if need for transport. Also along with chew proof leashes originally build for wolves with steal cables for even the most talented escape artist your pet is safe.

“Annie is fantastic! The funny part is I have never met her, but my other half did and said she was an angel! She is super accommodating for me and my pup. She sends pictures, and keeps me updated. She keeps our home safe, and makes sure it’s all locked up when she leaves. She was even willing to take my pup to the vet when he was sick and I was working. I use her weekly and say enough good things :)”


About: I moved to Florida permanently a couple of months ago, but I know the area because my parents have lived here multiple years. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. In 2015, I adopted my very own black cat, Louie, from a kill shelter in Texas, which deepened my passion for animal rescue and care. During college in Chicago, I gained hands-on experience working at animal shelters, where I learned valuable skills in handling and caring for different breeds and temperaments. I’m comfortable using gentle leaders as well as standard leashes, ensuring safe and positive walking experiences for dogs. Currently, I share my home with four cats and two dogs, and I truly love working with animals—it’s something that brings me joy and purpose every single day. I’m currently working part time from home, so I have plenty of availability to drop-in, take a walk, or even hang out with furr friends. I’m available: M, Tu, Wed, Fri, Sat from 7:30am-6pm Th, Sun from 7:30am-5pm *special requests may be considered if I happen to be available When taking walk or going outside, I take the safety of any dog seriously and have experience distracting dogs or leading them away from anything that may cause a problem to arise.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my whole life. I also know how important it is to be able to leave my pets with someone who is caring, kind, and safe. Pets are family but sometimes we need to leave them with sitter. I will care for the pups I care for as my own. I have a fenced yard where they can play. Arlington Park a few blocks away for walks. I am recently retired RN. I wake looking forward to care for my two small dogs and am available to open our home to another small dog. I keep my boarding to a single dog or will care for two from same home. I have a complete fenced yard and will be able to crate dog if necessary. Constant care. Never leave them outside by themselves. My dogs are allowed on furniture and sleep with me. The visiting dog will be able to as well if ok with owner.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and it’s something I’ve always loved. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes—from 5 lb lap dogs to 100 lb big pups—and I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’ve done everything from overnight stays to daily walks and fun trips to the park, making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. Caring for pets is second nature to me, and I always treat them like part of my own family. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. This allows me to dedicate consistent time to caring for pets, whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays, and ensures I can give each animal the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. In their home, I follow any routines or instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise. I make sure to give plenty of attention, playtime, and walks as needed, while keeping the environment clean and secure. When pets are in my care at my home, I provide a safe and welcoming space with supervision, toys, and lots of love, making sure they feel comfortable and cared for just like they would at home.

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs over the years, including regular walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of love and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Whether your dog needs a brisk walk, slow stroll, or just a potty break with some affection, I’ve got them covered! I work remotely and set my own hours, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care seamlessly into my day. Whether your pup needs a morning walk, midday break, or evening stroll, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends, and I'm happy to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take precautions on every walk—securing leashes, avoiding unsafe areas, and keeping a close eye on your dog’s behavior and energy. I take the time to build trust with each pet and make sure they feel safe and cared for, whether that means going slow with a shy pup or bringing a little extra energy for playful dogs. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in great hands!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, always at least 3 at a time and all sizes and shapes. What else to say… I just love dogs. 😊 I’m working nighttime and ready to take care of your pet every day after 9 am. I can come morning and/or afternoon, once or twice a day. I will come and look around first to make sure it’s clean and I will check the water and the food. Then I will take your pet or a walk and play a bite with his own toys and I’ll have some with me.

“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”


About: Hello! My name is Brooke. I work full time in health care but have also been working as a part time pet sitter for Rover for over 4 years now. Outside of Rover, I have pet sat for 10+ years and have a lot of experience with pets of all breeds/sizes and pets with specific individualized care and/or medical needs. I also have two kitty fur babies of my own, Potato and Charlotte. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets while you're away or in need of extra help! =) I pride myself on caring for your fur babies the same way that I care for my own. I always provide daily updates with multiple photos (unless you prefer not to receive them) and am quick to respond if you need anything or just want to check in. I am proficient and comfortable administering medications including insulin injections, oral medications, and breathing nebulizer/inhaler treatments for pets. Please message with any pet sitting requests or questions you may have. I am currently also accepting requests for Thanksgiving and Christmas week if you are planning on traveling for the holidays and need a petsitter while away. I am a resident physician completing my medical residency currently. My schedule varies week to week based on which service I am working. Drop in visits and dog walking requests during the week days are limited to early morning and evening times only (no midday visits available). That same availability applies to any weekend days that I am working or if I am off, then I am able to provide up to 3 visits (morning, afternoon, evening). Please reach out with any scheduling requests or questions. I care for all animals the same way that I care for my own, with lots of attention and love =). I also try to keep all animals routines as consistent as I can while you are away so I aim to do feedings, walks, bathroom breaks, etc around the same schedule that they're used to when you're with them.

“So lucky to find such a great friend for my dog Shadow. Great communication, on time, in control, and great with dogs. I felt comfortable that Caroline was with my dog while I was gone. I will absolutely use Caroline as long as she is available!”


About: I have thoroughly enjoyed taking care of different dogs from a variety of breeds and ages for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family know that they can rely on me to care for their fur babies! I have also worked on a farm with a variety of different animals including puppies along with working for a dog walking company. I am a spiritual life coach in the process of expanding my business. I work from home and am my own boss which gives me a lot of flexibility in creating my schedule. I do have time slots when i'm working with clients but besides that I am able to be quite flexible based on your needs. I love to connect with the pets ahead of time to get to know their personality along with meeting the parents and seeing if i'm a good fit. I care for pets in my client’s home and learn what the pets’ essential needs are and what I should do when they demonstrate certain behaviors.

About: I take the time to bond with each dog, earning their trust and making them feel safe, loved and understood. I adapt my approach to each dog’s personality, energy level and needs, whether it’s a playful pup who needs exercise or a senior dog who just wants gentle companionship. I’m currently working part-time as a realtor so I have a flexible schedule and can work around my clients schedules and needs as directed with notice. I live in a condo with two kittens so I will most likely be sitting at the client’s home. I will care for the pets as directed by the client, providing them photos and details of my time with their pets.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. They are sweet and so lovable. I’ve been w/ Sr Dogs and puppies to turtles and fish. I’m flexible with my time. I can walk, board in my home or yours. Walking includes long visit. Can distribute Meds if needed. Love to meet you. I lost my 16 yr old doodle 6 months ago so my home is pet free. Pets welcome on Furniture & bed. I also have a crate if needed

When your pet is with me, their happiness, safety, and well-being are my top priority. I’ll treat them like family—whether that means belly rubs, playtime, long walks, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your furry friend! 😊 I am very flexible and will try my best to be there when needed. You can count on me!

I provide comforting company and thoughtful attention to all of your dog’s needs.

“This is my first time using a professional dog walker. I interviewed a lot of prospects before giving Kerry a go. I was hesitant because she’s new to being a professional dog walker. And she didn’t have any reviews. However I liked that this is a midlife career choice for her. That she intends dog walking to be her profession. I had the impression I count on her being honest and reliable and acting with integrity. It’s apparent that she has the maturity and experience that I was looking for. While still being young enough to keep up with my highly energetic, very headstrong, antisocial, maladjusted Lab-Pit rescue. I loved her enthusiasm, energy and her obvious love of animals. She did an excellent job getting me acquainted with the process, asking the right questions, and having well thought out answers to all of the things I was concerned about. When she arrived for the first walk, she was on time, fully prepared. She spent time making sure Molly and I were both comfortable with her. She went over how the first walk would go, where she’d be taking Molly, what kind of exercise Molly would get and how much time she would spend doing it. I was happy with her plan. I made a few small suggestions which she happily incorporated. It turned out to be a very comfortable process and much easier than I anticipated. All in all I was extremely impressed with Kerry. She did an excellent job communicating both during and after the walk. Which greatly reduced anxiety. She sent me a number of pictures both during and after the walk which confirmed that everything had gone well and that my baby was back home safe and sound. I am posting this after Molly and Kerry’s second walk. I am already very comfortable with her taking care of my baby. Again her communication was excellent, And I can already tell Molly looks forward to walking with her. I absolutely intend on using her again!! I wish she was close to my home, instead of my work. I would absolutely hire her to be a full-time daily puppy walker. I have no problem recommending her. She did an excellent job, and exceeded all of my expectations.”

Gabrielle K.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – The Absolute Best Dog Sitter! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Gabi Knitter and the way she cares for my dog, Lola. From the moment they met, Gabi treated Lola like her own—full of love, patience, and genuine affection. It’s rare to find someone who not only likes dogs, but truly understands them. Gabi gets it. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just snuggling on the couch, Gabi makes sure Lola is happy, safe, and loved every second I’m away. She communicates regularly, sends the cutest updates, and always goes above and beyond—whether it’s adjusting her schedule or picking up on Lola’s little quirks. Honestly, leaving your pet with someone can be stressful—but with Gabi, it’s complete peace of mind. She’s a total natural, incredibly responsible, and has the kindest heart. Lola adores her, and so do I. If you’re lucky enough to book Gabi to care for your dog, don’t think twice. She’s amazing.”

Daelia C.
“Daelia was a regular walker for our lab/pit mix, while my husband and I worked as night shift nurses. Not only was Daelia extremely reliable, she maintained great communication with every visit, and went above and beyond to show our sweet pup love and attention. She frequently spent extra time playing with our pup, especially on days with bad weather when she couldn't be outside for very long. We were heartbroken when Daelia said she was moving and she is without a doubt someone we would recommend to watch your furry loved one.”


Gina T.
“We have been so grateful to have Gina to help with our furry family members. We have a Pug (Roxy) and a Dachshund (Barney) and she has taken wonderful care of them. They are older and have special needs. Gina is very responsible and takes an interest in them, loves them, keeps them in their routine and gives their medications meticulously. She stayed in our home while we were away for 3 weeks and bonded with them. After we returned home, they would sit by the door waiting for her to arrive. They even looked around for her. This made us very happy. It is a great feeling to be able to travel and not have any worries about the care of our sweet Roxy and Barney and now a third one, Wilbur. I highly recommend Gina to anyone who wants trustworthy responsible and loving care of their pets.”


Leslie D.
“Leslie is one of the kindest, loving humans I have ever met! She loves all animals and her care and attentiveness to needs, schedules and routine is unmatched. She has cared for my animals for many years and I would highly recommend her for your fur babies too!”
